Denis, were you able to reproduce the issue?

Strange indeed. I don't see anything weird in the diff between the versions: diff /usr/src/linux-2.6.24.7.orig/.config /boot/config-2.6.24.7-v1-fitpc2 3,4c3,4 < # Linux kernel version: 2.6.24.7-v2-fitpc2 < # Fri Jun 26 20:01:48 2009 --- > # Linux kernel version: 2.6.24.7-v1-fitpc2 > # Mon Apr 20 10:...
